I have been ENJOYING many of your teaching video's! You have a real gift for teaching without a bunch of wasted clatter! Easy to learn and to the point! God bless you for all that you are doing for us newbees :)
One of the best Label videos I've seen so far! Love how detailed you are. So many videos forget steps or don't mention specific settings. I've been intimidated by doing my own labels since I'm not super tech savvy. So helpful!!
I love your videos and following your success. You are one of a kind for us, beginners. Not many business owners share their trials and errors. I can appreciate you being so very detailed with do's and dont's your videos are so helpful. A big thanks to you for sharing and encouraging us. I have learned so much just by listening to you. ANd I feel very inspired.
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much. I’m SO glad my videos are helpful for you!! ❤️
You are the best Erica. Nobody explain like you. So helpful. I really appreciate. Thank you so much.
OMG! This was extremely helpful. I'm about to launch my own candle business here in Mexico and you've been saving me along the process. THANK YOU SO MUCH :)
Buena suerte!
De que parte?? 😀😀
Hello, I am also going to start this business but on small scale. Could you please share me your experience.
Learning how to choose which labels to print just saved me a TON of time! I've been manually trying to figure out what prints where for too long!
That was super helpful!! Thank you so much! Your youtube channel became quickly one of my go to's! Much love from Germany xx
You are an amazing person. Thank you so much. I am learning so much from you. My first language is not English, however with the step by step you’re doing, looks not so hard for me 🙏🏼❤️🙌🏽
Another great video!! I had NO idea you could adjust letter spacing in Canva, my mind is blown 😭
Thank you once again for gracing us with all this information!!✨🦋
Me either!!! I was so happy when I found this out 🥲❤️❤️
I am currently working on my label designs so thank you so much for all the great tips!
Great video with lots of fantastic tips and techniques. The Canva tutorial was especially excellent. We will be sharing this video with our Experience Team to use as a resource to help customers that are looking to create candle labels. Also, your matte black jars are gorgeous!
Created my first label last night and I want to thank you so much. Very helpful
I’ve been looking for video like that. I have all the materiel for my business already. Thank you dear for the info.
Great video. I know a lot of people appreciate this!
Thank you!
I’m definitely following for more 💛 I’ve been doing my research because I want to launch my own candle business soon and this was most certainly helpful!
I love her packaging and labels! Randomly discovered her vids a couple of days ago and been watching since. Probably because I'm trying to get my labels together, tho I don't do candles.
Happy to have you here! Thank you for watching 🤗
This was the video that made me click on subscribe! I have been researching about labels and how to make them, tips and ideas, etc! This is just what I needed! Super simple. Thank you so much. I will get the warning labels from you because this video and the information was free ❤
Thank you girl!
Incredibly helpful! Looks amazing. :)
Cute little label, Erica! I got a new color lazer printer. It's on the way from Amazon! I'm excited as mine was like 7-8 years old in just black and white. I did love it because I like a minimalistic label. You can't get funky or busy with to many colors, lol, there's only one. However, I've grown up a bit and developed self control, so I got the color printer. Not so much for candles, but for my soap labels.
Thanks for keeping us all updated on what is trending! When will we get another fragrance review? I love those!
Jill Gross
Here I am once again! Thank you Erica for all your input! :)
Well done, so easy to follow and understand. Thank you
Thanks for this video. I'd had issues printing on a laser printer and having the toner ink rub off from the label paper - was very frustrating. To fix this issue, just select "Labels" under the "Media & Quality" of your print dialogue box (I think it defaults to "Plain Paper"). Select "Labels" in the drop down menu. When you use the media type "Labels", it tells your printer to increase the heat when it transfers the toner to the label paper and it also slows down the speed of the print so that the toner and heat roller (thingy) make longer contact with the paper therefor allowing the toner to adhere and make a permanent bond to the label paper. My Lexmark color laser printer also has a setting in the print dialog box to select how thick or rough the paper or label is, which it then compensates speed and heat to accommodate that paper/label type. Hope that helps.
Hi is the What is the serial model number of your printer I can not find a good printer that prints my labels (black ink) dark enough. It comes out ashy
@@divinefem777 Lexmark C2535dw. I got it on www.cdw.com - You may want to check your printers settings and select a media type other than plain paper, like thick card stock paper as the printer will then increase the heat to transfer the toner so it will stick better to the paper. I had the same ashy toner issue and that fixed my problem.
this was so helpful i’ve watched it three times! i have the same printer in my salon so i’m going to try making a label i already use canva too for the salon and boutique so thank you so much i love your videos!
I just received My package from you I am so in love with the scents!☺️ I will definitely be purchasing again
Aw thank you so much!! So glad you love the scents!! ❤️
Great video! Had no idea you could put the net weight on the warning label! Now I need to redo some of my designs 😅
Lots of great tips! Thank you❤
you are a godsend!!! thank you so so much for sharing the knowledge and experience with us!!! I wish you and your business all the best!!
Thank you soooooo much. This is so helpful dear. Plus your Simply AMAZING!!🥰
Best video ever on how to design a candle label.
Best video yet! Thank you! 🙏
This video is sooo helpful! Thank you very much.
Oo! You got a new printer! Very nice.
This was so helpful. I’ve been through 3-4 different designs and nothing is coming together. Thank you for this video!
Thank you! You really helped me x
With Canva you can also use the up, down, left and right keys to move elements more freely in smaller spaces
Thank you for this video! I’m in the process of wanting to create my own labels and have no idea how to do it. Thank you
Tip for Canva: You can use the arrows to move the design wherever you want, just select the item and use the arrows on the keyboard :)
Amazing information, thanks for the tutorial.
Wow! Great explanation. Thank you. Do you have a video about foiling?
Thank you so much for making this video! Super helpful!
I’m so glad! ❤️
HAPPY NEW YEAR, Here's wishing you the 2022 that you choose to create.
I am so glad I found your channel! What size label do you like to use for tarts?
Erica, thank youu. You're amazing💕💕💕💕
Thank you for this video ! So informative
It was very helpful. Thank you for sharing.🤗
I made my first business cards years ago on this site! They really can produce great designs.
I agree completely! ❤️
This video is very helpful. Thank you.
I have been making candles for a couple years now…..
I really enjoyed this video. I don’t see many on this subject. I struggle with this. I don’t like all the information on the label, I never thought to place on bottom!
🌺Even after 7.5yrs of owning a business Making & Selling Soy Candles + Soy Melts & Natural Body Products Incl Organic Soaps etc I can still learn off you. Iv used Avery but haven’t liked it much so iv been lazy n used Vistaprint to create from their images/backgrounds.
🌼I’m based in Finley, Australia 🇦🇺
🌸I thank you very much for sharing your Tips & Tricks.
🌷Iv wanted to use Canva but have been to scared.. lol
🍄I have a Inkjet printer
Such a useful video!
This was so helpful thanks so much
I'm so happy you mentioned it takes time to create a label design. I'm familiar with Canva and other design programs but when watching other videos, they usually say "It takes just 5 minutes to create." They rarely state how long it takes to come up with a design that aligns with your brand and/or vision. Yes, there are templates for labels. But to customize and really be satisfied with labeling for your vision takes time. FYI, don't worry about the mic. We got a little ASMR, lol. 😂 Great video!
So glad you said this because I was getting irritated with people saying oh canva is soo eat you can design in 5 mins. Like hello no! There’s barley any instructions and you have to stop and go on UA-cam and etc to find videos for help so no it’s not easy and when you want a real nice design it definitely takes times. Not to mention if your not printing it yourself and having a company do it that’s another research videos and it takes a whole lot of time more than actual candle testing🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
@Keisha Mack There's definitely a learning curve and options that can be overwhelming. Once you get through that, it becomes manageable. Hang in there, you got this! 😊
@@iSleepyPanda thank you for your kind words it’s more than well appreciated!❤️
I’m new to your page. You have lots of great information..
Thank you so much for this video, I recently started playing around with Canva so this was so much help! Also, thank you for showing us creative market. I had a question, how do you manage to make your vectors different colors though? I can't find any that aren't black?
I am so appreciate that I can watch this video and it helped me a lot to deal with the creating a beautiful label for my candle, thank you! And I also have question is that can we print these label in colored , I mean that label paper background in different colors?
Great video, such a cute label. One thing, California Candle Supply is always out of stock of jars, I was wanting a clear frosted, any idea? Been searching, but clear frosted containers seem to be nowhere that I have looked.
OMG this was so helpful. Though Labels are more expensive than jars.
what do you suggest for an inkjet printer?? btw THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING your tips have been extremely helpful you don't understand.
I love your video! Can you tell me where I can get matte jars from? Thank you!
Thank u so much for this video!!
Thanks so much for watching, girl!!
this was really detailed. Can u make " transparent" labels the same way?
I really love the custom warning labels I want a simple design with gold foil so something similar would b great!!
Hi Erica thank you for this video, I’m trying the Canva step now. Do you have to pay to use the Online Labels tools?
Yes girl thank you
They look great! Are these labels full waterproof? Will they stain if wax gets on them? I’m running a refill program and would like to keep labels on the refills .. thanks! :)
Wow I just found your channel and was looking at your older video on this topic. I was literally just hoping you had a video showing more in depth how you design it and I saw this video was posted 6 minutes ago!! Thanks!! Btw I’m not sure if you’re willing to let us in on your jar supplier, I constantly have issues sourcing jars and lids. I’m always running out of jars and yours are awesome!!
Oh good I’m glad!!
And yes I put it in my description! I get them from calcandlesupply, however they are ALWAYS out of stock 🥲
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo Thank you so much for the reply. You’re easily the most informative and thorough UA-camr I’ve ever come across, in any genre and by FAR the best when it comes to candle making. Keep up the awesome work, it’s very inspirational and informative!!! You earned a new sub for sure!!
Oh wow thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️
Do you had a video on how you came up with your jar design? And what you used when you first started out?! Also is this something you can do on your phone or do you need a computer?!
I love your videos so much ❤️ thank you
Thank you! ❤️
What do u think about printing from a thermal printer?
Hey, what size font do you use for the circle stickers at the bottom of the jar?
Does the hp printer made the cut for the sticker?
*i know it's silly question because all i know for. cutting sticker label is the vinyl cutter. Hope u answer
Hi! I have a question about font sizes. Depending on the size of the end product of the label, how do you figure out the SMALLEST font you need to have at minimum for any of your labels?
Do you have a video to show how to do foiling on the label? I just have one word I would like to do in silver or gold foil. I hope I don't have to buy expensive special labels just for that?
Hi! Just wondering what sticker label did you use from online label (material wise, matte, glossy, premium matte, etc)? ty
wow thank you so much
Erica! Could you share how to make a print thank you cards with Canva. I have labels down but lost on trying to figure out the care cards etc! Thanks for all your advice and help!
I sell them on my Etsy shop actually!
Etsy.com/shop/mbccdesigns
I have a tutorial on how I edit/print it from home:

❤️
Thank you Erica
cute label
Where do you buy your spray bottles and candle jars from ?
I am literally doing this right now
I just got into candle making I have a question about the labels. Am I able to change the color of the paper? Like if I wanted a light green background and white writing for the labels can you do this?
Thank you, thank you & thank you.
You’re very welcome! Thank you for watching ☺️
Can this be done on a phone as well?
Great Ma'am. Thank you so much.
Great tutorial! I'm so happy I found your video.
I'm having trouble with the printing quality of my monochrome laser printer.
It leaves slightly jagged outline on the lettering. I don't know why.
I'm using canva to make my labels. I 've also tried printing as a pdf, changed to media setting to label paper but it still the same.
I'm desperate because I want to statrt a label business. I don't know what to do.
I’m having a very similar issue! Have you figured out a resolution? I’m trying to decide if I should return the printer I got, or if there is a fix.
@@ashlianxiety Hi,
I ended up returning my printer because it was too much of a hassle.
Side note: Make sure your printer language can properly read any type of document.
Mine was GDI and I changed to a new that is postscript.
But before you do that there are a couple of things you can do before you decide to return your printer :
First try check your settings on Adobe to see if the box 'print as image' is ticked.
Print a version with the box ticked and unticked to see if there's any changes.
- select the type of paper as label
If you still have the same result I think you should return it.
If you are in the UK printerland where the best to advise one what printer should I pick as there are actual printers experts.
Wherever you go make sure you look at the specs before purchasing.
Hope it'll help.
Thank you!
What's the best format to use for saving my label. Mine has an actual photograph and text including a colored background. So knowing how to save and find them back as well as printing has been my main frustration
Are you worried it will peel off if using in the bathroom while taking a bath? Also thanks so much for this. You are amazing
Hey, do you know that you can print them directly in canva with ecardify app?
Where do you get your matte black candle jars?
How do you duplicate the labels so you can put multiple on one page?
Hey! I am struggling hard on making a Warning Label design. Also on Maestro I am not able to edit layouts or print like you are able to. I'm very confused. Could use some help!
With this method how much is you label expense per candle? Thanks!!
Where do you get your candle jars?
Hi how do you cut the sticker label btw?
Where do you get your candle boxes/ containers?? Please 🙏 help… I’m starting this business in India
you are amazing thank you for this information, so if I don't have a professional printer I can use my HP for the moment? that's amazing, thank you thank you. I think everybody who likes this video should live a comment to hep your channel grow, you deserve it!!!
You are so kind!!
And yes most printers will be able to print labels! The quality of course will vary depending on the printer but it’s worth a try!
@@MemoryBoxCandleCo thank you again!!🙏🙏🙏🦋🧚🧚🧚
When purchasing in creative market do you purchase the commercial or extended commercial license type just in case?
I always purchase the commercial license because i use my graphics to create labels and other things i sell, its usually only a few more dollars
Can you upload vector straight into to Canva?
Hi, how do you cut your labels?
